Abstract

The study was conducted to (i) isolate, select, and identify strains of purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB), which can fix nitrogen (N), from soil and water in a rice-shrimp integrated system, (ii) to determine the capacity of the selected potent PNSB strains in producing plant growth promoting substances. The isolation resulted in 57 pure PNSB strains from 36 soil samples and 36 water samples of rice-shrimp paddy fields in Thanh Phu - Ben Tre. Among them, 49 strains survived under pH 5.0 conditions, 24 of which grew well under microaerobic light (ML) and aerobic dark (AD) conditions in a basic isolation medium (BIM) containing NaCl 5‰. Two strains (S01 and S06) with the greatest N fixation were identified by 16S rRNA techniques as Rhodobacter sphaeroides. Their N production was 16.9 mg L-1 under the ML condition and 32.1 mg L-1 under the AD condition. Moreover, two R. sphaeroides S01 and S06 strains performed P solubilization at 0.382-2.954 mg L-1 from Al-P, 3.81-4.28 mg L-1 from Fe-P, and 3.87-4.74 mg L-1 from Ca-P, and production of plant growth promoting substances, such as IAA (12.3-15.5 mg L-1), EPS (1.09-1.58 mg L-1), siderophores (10.7-53.6%) and ALA (1.68-2.82 mg L-1) under both the incubating conditions.

Abstract

The research aimed to (i) isolate, select, and assess the pathogenic potential of fungi that pose a risk of causing scab disease on King mandarin fruits (Citrus sinensis), and (ii) evaluate the antagonistic potential of Trichoderma spp. against Neurospora spp., , which cause scab disease on King mandarin fruits under in vitro conditions. The isolation process identified four fungal strains from ten King mandarin fruits showing scab symptoms, collected from ten orchards in Vung Liem District, Vinh Long Province. The three most virulent scab-causing fungal strains were KMS-01, KMS-02, and KMS-04, with growth diameters of 7.60–7.63 cm after 72 hours of culture (HoC). Additionally, the antagonistic ability of 50 Trichoderma spp. strains against Neurospora spp. ranged from 49.8% to 87.6% at 72 HoC. Among these, three Trichoderma spp. strains—T-SP03, T-SP26, and T-SP41—exhibited high antagonistic efficiency (86.1%–87.7%) against all three scab-causing strains. Based on the ITS region, the pathogenic fungal strains were identified as Neurospora intermedia KMS-01, N. intermedia KMS-02, and N. crassa KMS-04, while the Trichoderma spp. strains were identified as Trichoderma asperellum T-SP03, T-SP26, and T-SP41 with 100% similarity. T. asperellum shows potential as a biological control agent against Neurospora spp., the causative agents of scab disease in King mandarin.
